The Wikimedia Foundation recently published Advancing Gender Equity: Conversations with Movement Leaders, a report summarizing 65 interviews with Wikimedians who lead gender equity projects. These conversations explored the unique challenges and successes of their work to advance gender equity on Wikimedia projects. This report provides a succinct overview of what we learned from them.

This presentation will provide an overview of the report and invite participants to share their responses and brainstorm strategies for implementing changes in their work in order to support gender equity.

Advancing gender equity means that we seek fair treatment, access, opportunity and advancement for all genders. Because some genders have been historically underserved and underrepresented, equity requires that we identify and eliminate barriers that have prevented their full participation in society.
